We kick off with a maiden race which is very hard to assess with a number of the runners having their first run but we feel AZZURRA DU CAPRIO can go in ahead of Nobutjust and Miserere. The selection has the benefit of racecourse experience and that should stand her in good stead. She ran well on debut firstly running green but than flying home at the finish. She looked to be really getting the hang of things that day and is taken to improve further. Nobutjust represents one of the tracks top trainers and looks to have a pedigree that will suit today's trip for the time being. Miserere is very interesting from the family of high class sprinter Averti. The Fahey team's horses must be respected wherever they are placed but it would be a small surprise if Mica Mika won. This is a tough opener where the market should be used as a selection guide but Azzurra Du Caprio gets the tentative nod.
